but that was worse in some ways than katrina was the gdp event. because katrina kind of localized. it was a gross domestic product event in that there was so much rebuilding that had to be done that there were just months and months and months of lumber going up, shingle going up, roof tile going up, appliance going up. from what you hear with 60 million people, this could be a gdp event. i know the futures are down. look, there's terrible tragedy coming if everybody's right. but there will be insurance that pays off billions. and that will go back into the u.s. economy. i'm not looking for silver lining when there is the lethality of the storm. be aware, they weren't looking for it either in andrew. then it was just months and months of better gdp. >> that's an excellent point. joining us this morning, former new york governor george pataki joining us on the cnbc newsline. good to have you. good morning. >> nice being on with you. >> i assume you heard part of the mayor's presser. normally when you're about eight, nine hours ahead of landfall, you get a little more clarity here. n

one of the dangers, of course, i compare it to katrina. its a very different storm. what was so painful is it just didn't leave, so all the roots for all the trees got soaked and the wind pushed the trees over, knocked the power out, created all those problems. is this one moving? >> really, the pain in katrina was that those levees breached so that flood water didn't have anywhere to go. there will be a lot of flooding happening, and it again won't have anywhere to go very quickly. it was moving faster. it slowed down and it's going to slow down here and kind of settle across parts of pennsylvania maybe towards northern virginia over the next 48 hours. that means we'll continue to see impacts, wind, rain, very heavy snow from this. it doesn't go away quickly, but it does begin to subvied. the winds will weaken a bit by tomorrow morning. tomorrow afternoon. everybody across the area still seeing winds 50 to 60 miles an hour, and that will continue to cause power outages which at this point i'm hearing is over three million so far across this entire region. greta? > >
